Answer:
MY=80
Step-by-step explanation:
MX=MY ( since M is the midpoint)
2x+10=3x-5
10+5=3x-2x
15=x
MX+MY=MX
2x+10+3x-5=MY
2(15)+10+3(15)-5=MY
MY=80
Answer:
Courtney is bringing 8 snacks
Step-by-step explanation:
Chelsea's snacks are represented as 2x.
2x means <u>2 · (a number)</u>
If Chelsea brought <u>16 snacks</u> and the <u>amount of snacks represented by 2x</u>, we have to figure out <u>what times 2 equals 16.</u>
In order to find out, we have to <u>divide</u>.
16 ÷ 8 = 2
This means 2 · 8 = 16
Since the amount of snacks Courtney brings is represented as <u>"x"</u>, she would have brought 8 snacks.
Hope this helped! :)
The opposite of square root is simply square, so try squaring both sides and use algebra
